    Biggest comeback in franchise history….

    “they were trying to lose.” I know your team blows now, but what a wet fucking blanket. Cheer up. Go to a strip club, wave a gun around, have some fun.

    Is it just recency bias or are the percentage of stars out for injury incredibly high over the last few seasons?

    :gross:
    Since the All-Star Break, Damian Lillard has been the league's leading scorer, averaging 37.0 PPG on 65.1 TS%. During this exact time span, the Portland Trail Blazers are 3-9, the 2nd worst record in the league in that span.

    Would like to see him have a great playoff run before he becomes mortal. Portland getting the number one pick this year and drafting Wemby is about the only way that’s happening. They are due some luck in that regard though so hopefully the basketball gods make it happen.

    the haslem meme was hysterical three years ago

    now it's kind of sad. hasn't played in more than 16 games a year since '16. played in 24 games combined the last 4 years(one year he played a single game for 3 minutes).

    I will admit that upon reflection, and thinking about the power of the Dame as elderly Splinter meme, I am full on pulling for Portland to get Wemby.

    nothing sad about a dude collecting a check. Haslam could teach "youngesters" if Riley wasn't so opposed to having young players.

    Jaylen Brown has been the best player on the Celtics since the all-star break and it really hasn’t been close.

    It's baffling how the Warriors turn into like the worst team in the league on the road. They are now 7-29/.194 on the road. The Pistons have the worst record In the league at .225. Only two teams have a worse road record - the Spurs and the Rockets

    And yet there are only two teams in the NBA with a better home record than the Warriors.

    Celtics lose again. Mazzula has done a horrific job since being named head coach. Although his handling of the rotation has been terrible all year.

    I guess it behooves Dillon Brooks for everyone to focus what he says after games, so that we aren't focusing on what he does during games. Lower TS% than Russell Westbrook

    He’s taking inspiration.

    I mean Pat Bev tricked the league into paying him for 12 years for Shit-talking Chris Paul and injuring Russell Westbrook and he sucks.

    He did hold Steph to 15 points below his average. Why are you acting like he can't play defense? He's an asshole who can't shoot for shit, but he's an elite defender.

    They beat a bad road team at home. Congrats on doing your one job. We should throw him a parade. He’s trying to annoy himself into relevance. You’re the fifth best player on a good team. Congrats

    Brooks is a cunt and a good defender. Steph could have dropped 50 on that level of defense. All of these things can and are true simultaneously.

    The last one was a solid effort but wordplay with two words that are pronounced differently but spelled the same is always clunky
